Harbour Air first demonstrated its commitment to sustainability by becoming the first fully carbon-neutral airline in North America in 2007, through the purchase of carbon offsets. globally, all while providing few low-cost, fuel-efficient options for passenger flights under 1,000 miles.

One negative side effect of a lean burn engine, whether powered by gasoline or diesel fuel, is an increase in the amount of emissions released to the environment. In 2007, Vorbeck signed a worldwide license agreement with Princeton University for a patented method from the the Aksay Labs for manufacturing graphene at commercial scale.

Essentially, our aim is to provide bio-fuel for cars and bio-energy at competitive cost without harming the environment, with very low or zero net carbon emissions and without competing with food production. The challenge now, in the current economic environment, is to commercialize in Europe.

It is produced in a low-cost process of acid hydrolysis. Traction is always a key issue with tire performance, and the study showed that the traction of the new product was comparable to existing rubber tire technology in a wet, rainy environment. Both products are very dense and reduce the fuel efficiency of automobiles.

The most immediate, effective and low-cost way to reduce soot emissions is to put particle traps on vehicles, diesel trucks, buses, and construction equipment. 1990; Anisimov, 2007] and chemical production of ozone in already-polluted locations [Jacobson, 2008b]. Particle traps filter out soot particles from exhaust fumes.

Because of the same input and output in all cases, an increase in energy conversion efficiency nearly equals impact reductions in carbon and water footprints on the environment. Energy Environ. Each element can be analyzed separately and adjusted individually; most of which have data well-documented in literature. PLoS ONE 2(5): e456.
